It's late now
You call me, playin' games
(Why won't you let me be?)
The same doubts
The same scene
No escape
We're runnin' in circles
I'm sick of your lies
But damn it, I'll see you tonight
Lay me down
Crawling right back to you
After you cursed my name
Won't you lay me down?
I left you black and blue
So why don't I feel shame?
Well, I thought it might be different
I leave it all behind
But you played so considerate
I let you back inside, so
Lay me down
Crawling right back to you
After, after
After you ain't the same
You break vows
Say you're sorry, ain't okay
(Why don't you up and leave?)
Then we play house
But the walls speak
What remains
I know what I'm missing
I can't even hide
Why won't I put up a fight?
Lay me down
Crawling right back to you
After you cursed my name
Won't you lay me down?
I left you black and blue
So why don't I feel shame?
Well, I thought it might be different
I leave it all behind
But you played so considerate
I let you back inside, so
Lay me down
Crawling right back to you
After, after
After you ain't the same
After you ain't the same
Hold me, baby
Won't you let me be?
